Just noticed this is a DSG one as well, and it also has shift paddles on the wheel ! I thought the Altea DSGs didn't have these paddles - could this be a Cupra only feature ?
Edit: The tiny front quarter light looks a bit messy

Well these look very polished, and i expect tomorrow will be the day that SEAT actually show the car at Geneva.
I have to say given what rules new cars now must be built too, its not a bad job, certainly Salsa body concept in it, whihc is no bad thing, its been one of my favourite SEAT concepts, the headroom looks good, and the interior space. Boot space doesn't concern me too much, i hardly use it anyway.
But i do like this coupe-esque shape, if it comes with a 2.0TFSI and DSG, i think i'll be sold, im sure its not to everyones taste, but a lot said that of the Altea and thats proving to have a growing following.
I await more details, hopefully tomorrow, please SEAT don't let us down.

Now that I like, that's far more convincing than the photoshopped Altea pictures and it looks cool IMO.
Compared to todays shots of the new Civic and new re-styled Focus and bland Astra it's bold, I think this Leon is a bold and striking alternative (IF this IS what it's gonna look like)
First positive piccys I have seen, fingers crossed

they have done a great job of disguising its Altea routes actually.
I'll do a design analysis tomorrow. It looks like the bonnet and front over hang(longer) is new as well.
Dont forget, this is a prototype, so anything that isnt Sheetmetal is quite likely to change (including the central rear exhaust)

i like it from 3/4 rear astra ish back 147 ish luv the zorst see leather too, if it's owt like that i luv it, come on seat dont water it downvern
wow when can i order one i want i want right now i think it's greatwas really worried it was gonna look like the toledo but this i like
and even tho it's a 4 door it looks like a coupe and i've heard rummors
that the hot tdi is gonna be around 170bhp sounds promising
it gets a big
I've been itching like a kid to see these pics, and they don't dissappoint
it's *almost* the salsa I've drooled of.
As per Altea Prototipo I doubt the Alfa doors will see production

looks *loads* better than the spy pics that have been around, but i hope seat can keep some of the flare in the car without watering it down.

Tomorrow IS the official day of unveiling...
...and speaking to some people "in the know" (aka, head of sales at my local stealers, who know I'm not in the market for a new car!), the anticipated FR version due in approx 1 year, we will see the 200bhp engine from the Golf GTi, and the CUPRA expected a year after that will see 245 - 250bhp from the same engine...
...but guess who forgot to ask about diesel options 
As for the looks of the car... shame the rear could be mistaken all too easily for an Alfa 147... otherwise, looks pretty good!
